Laura is an attractive 20-something woman who lives in Prague with her widowed mother. The two women muse about their love lives and diss Czech men, much like the way my friends and I diss Singaporean men. Ahaha.
As Laura has her hair fixed at her hairdresser’s, she recounts her past successes and failures with men to her hairdresser who is also another woman looking for love. While on a ski trip with her second boyfriend, Laura meets Oliver, a much older man whom she is very attracted to. They fall in love, or lust really, and fall out of it on a return trip a year later to the same ski resort where they had met. Not long after the break-up, Laura sees a love letter addressed to her being plastered on many ad spaces in the subway trains. Will Oliver, who is a high-flying advertising executive, win her back with his words?
So basically this film from the Czech Republic is really a chick-flick and it’s really enjoyable! It was adapted from the novel of the same name. The soundtrack’s great with its collection of chill-out French songs! A recommended watch!
